History and Origin

As mentioned earlier, the Tikuanyin tea dates back 200 years. Many
stories are surrounding the origin of this tea. The most popular
version of the story that talks of the origin of the tea are about a
farmer named Wei Yin.Yin was very poor but kind hearted. He earned his
daily bread through working for people. He lived from hand to mouth.
After working for people, he would then spend the rest of his time
taking care of Guan Yin (Goddess of Mercy) that was abandoned. The
Goddess of Mercy was in a temple near his home.

As he was sleeping, he dreamt that the Goddess of Mercy told him to
go to the temple and look for a cave. In the morning, he went in search
of the cave. Inside the cave, he found one tea shoot and carried it to
his place of residence. He then placed it in iron (Tie) pot. With time,
the tea grew into a very big bush. It had the best quality tea leaves.
Being kind hearted, he decided to give his neighbors as well as friends
some of the cuttings of the tea to plant. Their county rose to
prosperity due to that tea.

To date, the Anxi area in Fuji is known for producing the best
quality tea. This can be attributed to the fact that region has the best
or optimal conditions for the growth of the Tikuanyin Tea. The
area’s mild and humid climate coupled with enough rainfall makes it the
best place to grow the Tikuanyin. Another important point to note is
the fact that traditional methods of brewing the tea render Anxi as the
best place globally for testing tea.
